I Put In My Thumb and Pulled Out A....Plum



I'm so loving the inspiration over at Moxie Fab World. This time I put in my thumb and pulled out the Plum Crazy challenge. Holy Moly you are not going to believe all the stunning creations everyone has come up with using gorgeous tones of plum. I'm not even done looking at all of them and my jaw is dropping to the floor. I can't wait to drool slack jawed over the rest of them. I so loved coming up with this little holiday card of my own. I think I will be using plum a little more often on holiday and all other cards...it provides a touch of elegance I think.

  8. wow! that is PLUM gorgeous...and ♥yes♥...definitely verrrrry elegant! (tho i suspect the latter is more a "cheryl" thing than an intrinsically "plum" thing!) i love that you've not used a lot of specifically "holiday" themed products, and yet the card is still wonderfully christmassy! ♥
